Planet Merge Introduction
Planet Merge is a space-themed puzzle game released in 2026. It combines merge gameplay, simple physics, and an arcade style challenge as players launch planets into a circular play area and combine two identical planets into a larger one. The game features 10 different planets, with the ultimate goal of continuing the chain of merges until the Sun is created. Unlike a basic merge puzzle, every launch is affected by cosmic gravity, so the landing position, bounce, and movement of nearby planets all matter. If a planet leaves the circular play area, the run ends, making each shot worth thinking about.
Gameplay Overview
- You launch one planet at a time and choose where you want it to land.
- Matching planets merge when they hit each other.
- The planets don't just stop where they land because gravity and collisions can move them around.
- As the planets get bigger, the play area gets more crowded.
- The main goal is to keep making good merges and eventually reach the Sun.
- If a planet goes outside the circular area, the game ends.
- The score gives you another reason to keep playing and try to beat your previous run.
How to Play
- Use the mouse to aim and launch planets.
- Look at the other planets before making a shot.
- Try to predict where the planet will bounce after hitting something.
- Don't just aim for an immediate merge. Think about where the new, bigger planet will end up.
- Keep some open space around the larger planets so the board doesn't become too crowded.
- When several planets are close together, a good shot can trigger multiple merges.
A Few Tips
- Take a second to check the whole board before launching.
- Try not to build everything against the edge of the circle.
- Use smaller planets to set up bigger merges later.
- Pay attention to how gravity changes the movement after each collision.
- When the board starts filling up, making space can be more important than getting a quick merge.
- Chain reactions are useful, but don't force one if it could send a planet out of the circle.
